CONDITION:
Very good vintage condition. There is a small orange spot just underneath the center of the waistline, along with some flecks in the print on the left side of the skirt. These may be flaws in the printing process of the skirt. Also, a small section on the back of the hem has become unstitched slightly, but still remains folded over. Please see photos. Regardless of these flaws, the piece presents beautifully, and has been priced accordingly.

This garment has been cleaned and is ready to wear.
